Sure, it started on Geocities, but everyone knows that bit of lore. Websites on Geocities had to link back to the main page with an 88x31 button, and it became a trend to modify its appearance while keeping the size the same. After its virality it got codified in the IAB's (at the time "Internet Advertising Bureau", now "Interactive Advertising Bureau") December 1996 "PROPOSAL FOR VOLUNTARY MODEL BANNER SIZES"

The IAB called the 88x31 standard the "Micro Button" and later the "Micro Bar". The banner ad sized became standardised as the IAB gained more and more legitimacy. There was in fact a need for this. Prior to it there were over 250 different ad banner sizes around the web, and users often times could not recognise what was and what was not an ad!

This is the first iteration of the standard: https://web.archive.org/web/19980211033307/http://www.iab.net/news/content/library/decbanner.html

After that, they had some expansions in 2001 introducing additional sizes called Interactive Marketing Units: https://www.iab.com/news/internet-advertising-bureau-iab-issues-voluntary-guidelines-new-interactive-marketing-units/

Is there a certain page that leads you to a broken 404 page? I know it used to have issues when pages are in a folder other than the main one. I'll have a look around to see if I can fix it

That's a quirk of the font, I'm afraid. Capital and lower case look the same with this font

@3dgoose uploading tonight, been busy. It's some new films on the film shelf and a fix to the way movies are presented. This time around there shouldnt be any ads or pop-ups on non-anime films.

The vast majority of them are gathered from various pre-existing collections (https://cyber.dabamos.de/88x31/ and https://anlucas.neocities.org/88x31Buttons are the main ones, with some smaller personal website collections i came across)

But some of the rarer ones are found by scouting, often ending up on old japanese websites that are still running (i remember one time some sort of a car webring that linked to a lot of other sites? very vague memory from a year or two ago)

Found a substitute, but after an hour of looking cannot find one that lets me link video address directly. so now you have ads and shit, and it's not as neat. It will do for now until we have a solution

But, technically, not illegal. I own a copy of these, it's just like lending it out to a friend. it's nigh impossible two people would watch it from here at the same time. So it's basically like a library

Added Hack-Tic so Xanthe has something to read.
Oh, this is wonderful! My only other exposure to retro Dutch computing culture thus far had been, erm, “Oh Shit!” for the MSX.
Yes, but now you have some 25 issues of a zine from 35 years ago to read!

What’s the vampirelynne page about? 🌀
Its vampire disclosure. Vampires are real and Jeff Lynne (of the Electric Light Orchestra) is one of them! (funny schizopost based on the fact the guy looks like he never ages)
